The monthly newsletter.
Local in Season's app is for the live, time-bound stuff — fishermen at the dock, foragers, farm stand drops. Field Notes is where the wider Vancouver Island food culture lives: wineries, cideries, cheese makers, harvest dinners, open-farm days, and the producers we love but who don't fit the drops feed.
The monthly newsletter.
A monthly editorial on Vancouver Island food: wineries, cideries, makers, harvest dinners, and producers we love that don't fit the live drops feed.
And what it is.
It's not advertising. Field Notes is editorial — written by humans who actually visit the stuff we write about. Sponsored placements are clearly labeled.
It's not weekly. One email per month, the first of the month, when there's something seasonal to point at — release weekends, open-farm calendars, harvest dinners.
It's not the app. The app stays disciplined on producer-direct food with availability that decays in days. Wineries, cheese shops, restaurants, makers with multi-month inventory — those all live here, in editorial, where they fit.
